Dear Kuya Xander,

I really love your blog. Gustong gusto kong basahin yung blog mo kasi madami akong natutunan lalo na yung mga inspirational post mo. Masaya ang blog mo kasi hindi ka lang nag focus sa isang topic kundimaraming bagay pa. Napansin ko lang na lately ang post mo parang broken-hearted ka at medyo may pagka emo. Bakit po? Ok ka lang po ba? Alam mo ba Kuya Xander an yung blog mo nalaman ko lang sa isang friend ko. Sabi nung friend ko yung teacher daw niya sinabi na i visit yung blog mo kasi madami daw matutunan na aral. Tama nga siya. Hope you will keep on posting inspirational stories and stuff.

By the way, I know this is not a coincident na mapunta ako sa blog mo because again my friend told me about it. I just want to know your opinion if you believe in coincidence? Hmm.. actually assignment po namin kasi yun. hahaha. Gusto ko lang malaman opinion mo. Thanks kuya! Keep up the good work.

Thanks and God bless!

Hi Ms. Coincidence,

First of all I would like to say Thank you for reading my blog.You do not know how much happy I am knowing that somehow my blog inspired you in one way or another. Please tell your friend and your teacher's friend to keep sharing my blog. Lels. Makilala nga ang Teacher na yan at mabigyan ng Teacher Awardee of the Year at pinangalandakan nya ang blog ko. Kung sino ka man na teacher ka, Mahal na kita!

First, let me tell you Ms. Coincidence na assignment mo yan at wag mo na ako isali dyan. Syempre joke lang yan! As my avid reader I'll give you my views and opinions about your question.

Coincidence? Hmm...

Well, the fact that you sent me an email is not a coincidence at all. I believe its because it's already planned na mabasa mo ang blog ko and magsend ka sa akin ng email. Hindi coincidence ang pagsabi ng friend mo sayo na basahin ang blog ko. At sabi mo nga hindi coincidence ang pagpunta mo sa blog ko kasi sinabi na ng friend mo.

However, may ibat-ibang batayan tayo pag sinabi nating coincidence. For some its a coincidence na matagpuan nila ang mga sagot sa kanilang katanungan, like for example; A persone who prayed for a lifetime partner and then find her/his one true love in a very unusual place like nagkabanggan lang sila sa MRT and then may spark bigla. Kaboom! "Pakasal na tayo?" ang drama agad nila. They consider it as coincident.
For me, I always believe that there are no coincidences in life. Everything is part of the plan. Kung baga pa naka sulat at naka record na yan lahat. Its like already written in the blue print of our life na mangyayari ang isang bagay. We may not understand it now, but one day it will all be revealed.

Like kanina, I accidentally bumped into a college friend on my way to work. I used the term "accidentally" simply because it was an accident. I would rather not see it as a coincidence. It's not part of the plan, and that eventually, the reason will be revealed to me in the future. How? Ewan! Basta!
Pagdating ko sa office ngayon, magkapareho kami ng suot ng kasama ko sa work. Not really the same brand of polo, slacks and formal shoes; but the same color and cut. Kulang na lang magkapareho kami ng mukha.

Coincidence? I dont think so. Everything that happen comes with a reason. Things could be a consequence of an action, a choice or God's plan waiting to be unravelled.

So, I hope Ms. Coincidence you got my point and I hope makakatulong ako sa assignment mo. Tanong lang, itong teacher ba na ito ang nagbigay ng assignment na yan? Hahaha..

Thanks alot and goodluck sa assignment.

Love,
